The staff were helpful and friendly, always ready to assist with any questions I had. The location was convenient, close to public transport and many attractions. The rooftop bar offered great views and a nice atmosphere. I found the free coffee in the lounge a good start to the day.
The room was quite small, it was a little difficult to move around with luggage. The air conditioning unit was loud. It made sleeping a challenge. Street noise was noticeable at all hours because the windows were not properly soundproofed.
